Wrapping a conducting wire around an iron cylinder is the concept of solenoid. So one thing is clear that the above question will have its answer based on the concept and theory of a solenoid.
A solenoid's theory states that the flowing current in the wire produces magnetism in the iron cylinder. It does not mean that a magnetized iron will produce current in the wire.
A) A current in the wire will turn the iron into a magnet.
